Leaf Art

Create a window hanging with the leaves you collected.

Continue to follow the steps and answer the questions.

Using a magnifying glass, examine the leaves you collected. How do they look close up? What makes one different from the other? What colors are they? Look at pictures of leaves in a book, and name the trees they came from.

Art project: Cover your workspace with an old sheet or towel. Place the leaves between two pieces of wax paper. Cover the paper with a thin piece of scrap cloth. Then, ask an adult to help you iron over the cloth. Let the wax paper cool. Put the preserved leaves in your scrapbook, separated into categories. You can even use these wax-paper projects as window hangings!
